She's rescuing the artifacts so they can be put in the British Museum where they belong. Elgin marbles better make room

Am I the only one annoyed the article is an article about a future article? Like I didn't get anything out of their experience into linux because it's just a pre-article and the user transition experience is what we're interested in.

Isn't crowdstrike still being sued for all the damages in aerospace? Kinda crazy

"30 minutes"- me when I lie on the internet. Where did you get that number? You realize we can check the news and see that big sites like x and chatgpt were down like 4 hours? Not only that, they said themselves it was not an attack but a misconfiguration. News were reporting it fixed around evening utc while the issue popped up around noon. That's not a 30 min outage and is a huge failure.

When I bought my first car, I preordered it (because the color wasn't available) and then did all the paperwork in a couple hours when it arrived and then drove it off the lot. Maybe it's different with lots of loans and checking, but assuming you have liquidity and proper certification in this scenario (I.e. Cashiers check), it might not be as difficult. I don't think you even have to spend it all on one transaction so you could easily break it into smaller ones, like plane tickets and travel arrangements are expensive for a few people. You could splurge and make it nice. They said you had to spend the money but it didn't mean you had to have the reward immediately

I don't think the public would be confused if they called the windowless seat a wall seat and made attempts to clarify. They could even warn the buyer when they select the seat.

They said that because you said "I'm not going to buy a 100 pack of rechargeable batteries" because that's a ludicrous idea for a typical parent. Families have two kids on average (trending downward) so how many toys do you think each kid has that requires batteries? How many battery powered toys are they actually using at a given period? Can they share toys? Can you teach kids to charge their batteries and move them? You read into it and didn't even figure out what or why they were calling you out.

Imo this question is pointed at young adults or teenagers because older adults are just going to trade liquidity for some other form or pay off some huge loan/bill.

"Jewish space lasers" "stepmoms aren't real moms" mtg as the anti-pedo faction... What a world we live in

And yet your example is an outlier. They haven't said anything wrong, you just want to be right. They do not have a hundred batteries they need to replace constantly- just you and your large extended family. And no one said there's zero use case for disposable batteries in this thread (go ahead and find the quote, you won't).

How people still insist fox news is news when they've gone out of their way to say they're not is beyond me. And wow I'm so sorry your fil consumes all that

I don't think you are the norm with the amount of batteries your kids consume. Most people don't have that many toys nor have that many kids.
